Now, Hyunsoo Kim and colleagues have demonstrated superconductivity below 5.4 K in a lab-grown sample of Rh17S15 (pictured), which is also found in nature as the mineral miassite (H. Kim et al. Commun. Mater. 5,17; 2024). Interestingly, the superconducting properties of this compound are quite different from those seen in most of the known superconductors.
In a conventional superconductor, an isotropic energy gap opens around the Fermi energy as soon as the system transitions to the superconducting state. However, Kim and colleagues found that in the case of miassite, the superconducting gap closes along certain symmetry directions referred to as nodes.
